I have a 2006 cadillac srx and i just replaced the battary,the number of the old battery was 101,and the replacement is 100,sales guy said it should work.since replacing battery seem to have delay when hitting gas and orange engine flashes now and then.Is this just a coincidence or do i have to get a 101 battery .

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. If the battery sizes are similar and they are not to much difference, it shouldn't bother it. If there is a big difference, it can effect the vehicle. If your battery light is flashing on, you need to make sure your battery terminals are cleaned and tight. There might not be a good connection. Inspect all wires for damage. If the light coming on is your check engine light, you need to have it scanned at Autozone or Advanced. It doesn't cost anything to do so and the part store staff can tell you why the light is coming on for free. You need to have it scanned because they are a hundred different things that can cause the check engine light to come on. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks for choosing FixYa and have a good day.

You must take the front wheel off, then remove the inner front fender panels (2), they are fastened with plastic pushbuttons. this exposses the light housings for the turn and fog lambs. This takes about an hour, but saves you alot of money.
